At 7:30 this morning just as the class I teach was to start I received a phonecall from the administrator that we were going into full lockdown. Apparantly a gunman was at large within a mile from our school, and SWAT teams, helicopters and police were searching for him. It was very hard to teach all day with the blinds drawn, waiting for something bad to happen... and I live in one of the nicest suburbs in the USA. When things like this happen- I ask myself... Christine- why are you staying here in the uSA???...Sorry had to vent.

No Kai,
I teach in one of the wealthiest suburbs in America- most are millionares who live here (but we are just 30 minutes from Philadelphia, now one of the highest crime/murder cities in America)
It's been a hard day. At times like this, I think I could never be a parent- the weight of the responsibility of caring for the life of children is enormous.
